opencryptoki README
Package version 3.3

Please see NEWS for additional version 3 information. 

OVERVIEW

openCryptoki version 3.1 implements the PKCS#11 specification version 2.11.
This package includes several cryptographic tokens;
 CCA, ICA, TPM , SWToken, and ICSF.

REQUIREMENTS:

 - IBM ICA	requires libica library version 2.3.0 or higher for accessing
		ICA hardware crypto on IBM zSeries.
 - IBM CCA	requires IBM XCrypto CEX3C card and the
		CEX3C host libraries and tools version 4.1.
 - TPM 		requires a TPM, TPM tools, and TCG software stack.
 - SWToken 	The software token uses OpenSSL version 0.9.7 or higher.
 - ICSF		The Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) token
		requires openldap and opeldap client software
		version 2.4.23 or higher. Lex and Yacc are also required
		to build this token.
 - EP11		The EP11 token is a token that uses the IBM Crypto Express
		adapters (starting with Crypto Express 4S adapters) configured
		with Enterprise PKCS#11 (EP11) firmware.


BUILD PROCESS

The simplest way to compile this package is to enter the source code
main directory and do the following:

  1. Run the bootstrap.sh script by typing:
        % sh bootstrap.sh
   
  2. Configure the source code by typing:
        % sh ./configure

     If you're planning to install the package into your home directory
     or to a location other than `/usr/local' then add the flag
     `--prefix=PATH' to `configure'. For example, if your home directory  
     is `/home/luser' you can configure the package to install itself there
     by invoking:
        % sh ./configure --prefix=/home/luser
     
     If your stdll headers and libraries are not under any standard
     path, you will need to pass the paths to your files to the
     configure script. For instance:

     $ CPPFLAGS="-L/path/lib" LDFLAGS="-I/path/include" ./configure

     See ./configure --help for info on various options.  The default
     behavior is to build a default token implicitly. For the s390
     platform, the default token is ica_s390. For other platforms, the
     default token is the software token. Other tokens may be enabled
     using the corresponding --enable-<tok> configuration option
     provided the appropriate libraries are available.

     While running, `configure' prints some messages telling which
     features is it checking for. 

  3. Compile the package by typing:
        % make
     
  4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
     documentation. During installation, the following files go to the
     following directories:
        /prefix/sbin/pkcsconf
        /prefix/sbin/pkcsslotd
        /prefix/sbin/pkcsicsf
        /prefix/libdir/libopencryptoki.so
        /prefix/libdir/libopencryptoki.so.0
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/libopencryptoki.so
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/libopencryptoki.so.0
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/libopencryptoki.so.0.0.0
        /prefix/var/lib/opencryptoki
	/prefix/etc/opencryptoki/opencryptoki.conf

     Token objects, which may be optionally built, go to the following
     locations:
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_ica.so
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_ica.so.0
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_ica.so.0.0.0
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_sw.so
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_sw.so.0
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_sw.so.0.0.0
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_tpm.so
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_tpm.so.0
        /prefix/libdir/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_tpm.so.0.0.0

     where `prefix' is either `/usr/local' or the PATH that you specified
     in the `--prefix' flag. `libdir' is the name of the library
     directory; for 32-bit libraries it is usually `lib' and for
     64-bit libraries it is usually `lib64'.

     To maintain backwards compatibility, some additional symlinks
     are generated (note that these are deprecated, and applications
     should migrate to use the LSB-compliant names and locations for
     libraries and executables):
        /prefix/lib/opencryptoki/PKCS11_API.so
          - Symlink to /prefix/lib/opencryptoki/libopencryptoki.so
        /prefix/lib/opencryptoki/stdll/PKCS11_ICA.so
          - Symlink to /prefix/lib/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_ica.so
        /prefix/lib/opencryptoki/stdll/PKCS11_SW.so
	  - Symlink to /prefix/lib/opencryptoki/stdll/libpkcs11_sw.so
        /prefix/lib/pkcs11/PKCS11_API.so
	  - Symlink to /prefix/lib/opencryptoki/libopencryptoki.so
        /prefix/lib/pkcs11
	  - Directory created if non-existent
        /prefix/lib/pkcs11/methods
          - Symlink to /prefix/sbin
        /prefix/lib/pkcs11/stdll
	  - Symlink to /prefix/lib/opencryptoki/stdll
	/prefix/etc/pkcs11
          - Symlink to /prefix/var/lib/opencryptoki

     If any of these directories do not presently exist, they will be
     created on demand. Note that if ``prefix'' is ``/usr'', then
     /prefix/var and /prefix/etc resolve to /var and /etc. On the
     ``make install'' stage, if content exists in the old
     /prefix/etc/pkcs11 directory, it will be migrated to the new
     /prefix/var/lib/opencryptoki location.

     If you are installing in your home directory make sure that 
     `/home/luser/bin' is in your path. If you're using the bash shell
     add this line at the end of your .cshrc file:
        PATH="/home/luser/bin:${PATH}"
        export PATH
     If you are using csh or tcsh, then use this line instead:
        setenv PATH /home/luser/bin:${PATH}
     By prepending your home directory to the rest of the PATH you can
     override systemwide installed software with your own custom installation.


CONFIGURATION

     See:
     http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/security/library/s-pkcs/index.html

     openCryptoki defaults to be usable by anyone who is in the group
     ``pkcs11''.

     You may need to add the pkcs11 group before using.
	% groupadd pkcs11

     Add root to the pkcs11 group.
	% usermod -G pkcs11 root

     Prior to version 3, opencryptoki used pk_config_data as its
     configuration file. This file was created upon running pkcs11_startup.
     In version 3, pkcs11_startup and pk_config_data have been
     removed and replaced with a customizeable config file named,
     opencryptoki.conf. It contains an entry for each token currently
     supported by opencryptoki. However, only those tokens, whose
     hardware and software requirements are available on the local system,
     will show up as present and available upon running the pkcsconf -t
     command.

     Before using, each token must be first initialized.
     You can select the token with the -c command line option; refer
     to the documentation linked to above for further instructions.

     Initialize a particular token by running pkcsconf:
       % pkcsconf -I -c

     In this version of openCrypoki, the default SO PIN is 87654321.
     This should be changed to a different PIN value before use.

     You can change the SO PIN by running pkcsconf:
       % pkcsconf -P -c

     You can initialize and change the user PIN by typing:
       % pkcsconf -u -c

     You can later change the user PIN again by typing:
      % pkcsconf -p -c
